Superseding the Horse.

In the German army the experiment
is being tried of mounting the aides
and messengers, as well rs some men,
bers Of the staff, upon bicycles and tri-
cycles. The roads and fields on the
continent are in such excellent condi-
ton that these wheeled vehicles can be
easily used. As is well known bicy-
Gle can, in time, run down the swiftest
horse, and then it is cheap to keep. OF
course, horses would have to be used
for dragging heavy artillery and for
cavalry purposes. Horsemen can no
longer be used for charging upon lines
of infantry. The magazine rifle has
put an end to all such exploits. But
for raids, tearing down telegraph poles,
cutting off detachments, a regiment of
wheelmen might be quite As useful al
Q troop of horse.--Demorest's Monthly.

The Society Girl.
H..rIr r. SaZar.


Many people believe that the society
girl is Synonymous with "the tailor
made girl, that she who can lay claim
I'd the most elaborate wardrobe, To the
most ambitious tournure, to tine latest
Partisan wrinkle, To the services of the
most extortioDate modiste, may call
herself a society girl /; but while they
are right in degree, they leave out
the essential elements. She is not
merely society girl by virtue of her
clothes any more than she isa student
on account of her library. Good
clothes are very excellant as far a.
they 60, and sometimes they don't go
as far as they ought, and the society
girl should take care not to follow
this style too closely. She must have
a rare fund of health to endure the
wear and tear of the season late
hours, standing on her feet, thin gar
ments, draughts, unwholesome food at
unreasonable hours; she must attract,
not on account of her toilettes-al-
though there is no denying that pref
ty and becoming costume shows art
and enhances the peculiar charms of
the wearer, if she happens to have any
and not always by any means, on
account of her beauty, since some of
the most successful have been plain
bellies. But she must have tact and
taste, and especially discretion she
must discover art and culture, and
know how to keep the ball rolling un-
der the most depressing circumstances;
she must not only know how to talk,
but how to listen eloquently /; she must
not be disputatious, nor seem to show
too much earnestDess in the vital ques-
tions OF the day. Society is not the
place in which to preach woman's
rights OF temperance, and she who
should undertake to set dinner-table
by the cars, so to speak, with an ex-
preston of her deepest convictions,
would be pretty certain to receive no
second invitation. There are those
who 60 so far as to say that the society
girl should have no convictions but
the conviction of her own acceptability;
at the same time she must not be
shallow. Still, the girl who ignorantly
aspires to society puts clothes first and
culture last, has more or less contempt
for everything but her fallals. 1t is
manner that carries the day, and good
nature and kindliness, even in society

A novel Entertainment.


A number of Washingtonians are
spending the summer at Berkeley
Springs, where a charmingly novel
entertainment was given them last
week by Mrs. Crichton. For this
purpose the mems pool, being the
largest, was engaged for two hours
and appropriately decorated with ferns
and flowers. The bathroom for each
of the young ladies invited was desig-
mated 10y ribbon on one end of which
was printed the name; this was fas-
tened to the door. The artistic effect
OF the scene was greatly heightened
by the costumes worn, many of which
were very unique. Alter a stay of
twenty minutes in the water the ladies
left the pool and were handed coffee,
served in delicate Sevres cups. When
they again emerged from the dressing
rooms they were given delightful
collation. of ices, cakes and champagne
punch. A prize for the best swim
mer-a handsome basket of flowers
and glass slipper filled with bonbons
for the second best swimmer,-were
awarded to Misses Sue and Mamie
Hunter.

agricultural.
THIS Is TRUE.

There are a few sections of the
country where, if the proper pains
are taken nearly or quite everything
used in the family can be raised
on the farm, and in a great majority
OF cases much cheaper than the same
quality can be purchased in market.
Many farmers do without or else use
a very small quantity of different va
rietles Of farm products that if raised
and used would not only be cheaper
but healthier The farmer and his
family must live, and it requires a
certain amount of food to do this.
Ii 1t is not raised on the farm it must
be purchased, and in buying you pay
three or four profits that you could
save if you raised them yourself. A
good garden truck patch, small fruit
plot and orchard, with poultry, will
go a long way toward keeping the
family supplied with something to
eat, and with proper care they will
be equal if not superior to the aver
age that will be purchased in market,
and in addition they will be fresh.
1t requires little care in selecting
good varieties to be secured, and if
you are raising for family consump-
ton, two or three paintings may be
necessary.

LARGE OR SMALL POTATOES.

a circumstance has, says CORES
pendent lately come under my obser-
walton, which has had considerable
weight in my mind in deciding tits
question. 4 party came to me last
spring after | had finished planting
potatoes, and after had sold all Of
my surplus seed with the exception
of a bushel or SO Of my small pota-
tocs-the culls from previous assort-
ing. Seed being very scarce, the
party referred to decided to take
these small specimens, and although
! freely expressed my belief that they
were too small for seed, they we're
planted. The soil was favorable, and
to my surprise the yield and size of
tubers is large for this season. am
decided in my own mind that the on
ly advantage in large potatoes over
small ones for seed is the extra
amount of nourishment which the
large potatoes afford the young plants
during their earlier stages of growth.
The difference is much less on rich
than on poor soil, because on rich
land the young potato plants require
less early nourlshment, and are bet
ter able to take care of themselves.
For this reason, am not in favor of
cutting potatoes to a few eyes. as re-
commended by some potato growers.
Much better results will be secured,
especially on light soil, by planting
whole tubers and thinning out the
stalks, leaving but two or four to
hill. In this way large stout tops
are produced, which are better able
to resist disease, and usually such
strong-growing tops unless Of over
size will produce large potatoes and
desirable yield.-lIarttord Times.
